When Ron contacted us in 2008 during his Dix genealogy research, we could not have expected such a warm bond with family we had not known we had. We got to know him as a generous and cheerful family man with a wonderful sense of humour, a fascinating life story and a welcoming nature, with an ever enquiring mind – and the sentence I will always remember even from our first ever visit to his home is “The sun must be over the yard arm somewhere”… We will remember you very fondly every time we lift a glass to your memory, Ron, as you take your well-earned rest. Agnes, Christopher & Annemieke Dix-De Hert

I so wish that we could be with you today, although it's not possible to be there in person our thoughts certainly will be.

Thank you for setting up this memorial to Ron. We hope that you find it a positive experience developing the site and that it becomes a place of comfort and inspiration for you to visit whenever you want or need to.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.
